Figure 24  General 06 – Fixed Speed Pump with Performance

A chemical is to be transferred to two tanks at a specific flow rate to each tank.

The flow rate is controlled by flow control valves in the pipe lines to each tank.

The upper tank requires a flow rate of 0.146m≥/min and the lower tank requires a flow rate of 0.120m≥/min. 


A bespoke filter system is incorporated into the system. This filter has been modelled as a component on pipe P3. The friction losses through the filter have been entered as flow and head values to produce a performance curve for the component.


Click 'Calculate' to solve the system and then click the pump on pipe P2. The duty point will be shown on the pump performance curve.
